Answer:

The answer to your question is c = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

a = 15

j = 24

k = 32

c = ?

Process

Use proportions to solve this problem. Compare the small triangle and the large triangle.

1.- Proportion of the small triangle

c/15

2.- Proportion of the large triangle

k/j

3.- Equal but terms and solve for c

c/15 = k/j

-Substitution

c / 15 = 32/24

c = 32(15)/24

-Result

c = 20

Answer:

She has a class of 17 kids. At $24 each, she can spend 17*$24 = $408. Since she spent $125.36, she has $408 - $125.36 = $282.64 left to spend.

A field is 910 yards by 300 yards. What is the greatest number of rectangle lots of 120 yards by 65 yards that can be places on

solniwko [45]

Let R = greatest number of rectangular lots.

R = (910 • 300)/(120 • 65)

R = 273,000 ÷ 7800

R = 35

The shaded region in the graph represents the solutions of this system of linear inequalities:

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

$y$

$y\leq 2x+3$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the equation of the solid line

From the graph take the points (0,3) and (4,11)

Find the slope

$m=(11-3)/(4-0)\\m=8/4=2$

The equation of the solid line in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=2$

$b=3$ ----> the y-intercept is the point (0,3)

substitute

$y=2x+3$

therefore

The inequality is

$y\leq 2x+3$

step 2

Find the equation of the dashed line

The slope is given

$m=4$

From the graph take the y-intercept (0,-5)

The equation of the solid line in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=4$

$b=-5$

substitute

$y=4x-5$

therefore

The inequality is

$y$

because the shaded region is below the dashed line

therefore

The system of inequalities is

$y$

$y\leq 2x+3$
